Headshots: Mordecai WIP 2

Got a lot done this weekend, and I finished off the Mordecai Borderlands figure, so this is the last of his posts.

Now, I know he's already pretty highlighted, but I use some white paint to do a little more highlighting before shading.

Then I begin adding some of the shadow and outlining in the next steps. I've worked on the whole thing mostly at once, but there are a few distinctions to make. Here, the shading is light, but I haven't gone heavy yet.

Then I go to more detail with heavier shadows and some more obvious shading. Notice that on Mordecai I've still used the slash / \ and hash # shading / highlighting method.

And to finish off, I've intensified the shadows and done some detailing. The smaller things and such, skulls, etc. A little more detail on the skin, gun, knife, holster.

With many thanks to MiniWarGaming and their crew for donating the miniatures that are being painted for this project.
